10 phase ASUS GTX 970 not making it to Europe :(

The Asus GTX 970 Dragon Knight 

That's a pretty cool name. It is a reference to the Chinese new year apparently.  It is above the default GPU 970 lineup but below the ROG boards. 

 

 

 significantly increased GPU clock rate, 10-phase voltage regulation module (VRM),  (8-pin and 6-pin power)  DirectCU II cooling system with two different 10cm fans. 

Factory boosts to 1355MHz as shown on the box. Very nice indeed. 10 phase power. Most likely the same type of VRM circuitry on the standard DCUII model. 8+6 pin power, usually featured on the mid tiers, that extra 75W should be useful. And standard cooling fans. 

 

 

The graphics card used printed-circuit board that Asus originally developed for its premium Asus Strix GTX 980 product, which has won multiple awards, including a Must Have award from KitGuru.

It should have the same mounting holes as the Strix then. If you are looking to water cool it. 

 

And finally Black and blue cooler. Saucy

If you want this card, you will need to import it Europeans.

cooler hangs over the larger/wider PCB so the fingers had to be extended.

Marked in red = doublers
Marked in yellow = ram phases (not doubled)

It's just a 4+2 phase, who cares about ram phases, just a silly 4+0. Nothing special
